Yeah, a lot of articles and studies quote single family detached homes, while referring to high density, high demand areas where those things basically don't exist. The cost of a 2 bedroom single family in Manhattan is not a very inter

TypeScript is basically only good now because of the competition. Earlier versions were pretty darn awful. These days, yeah, you're probably right that having only one might be better. Hopefully WebAssembly and languages running on top

A second bad thing that's equally bad to a first still ends up with double the bad things, which is worse than the single original bad thing.

Third parties won't get you in trouble as long as you have a DPA, but you need to get it. Customer IDs are fine as long as they can't be associated with other information anywhere else, but if they can, it's an issue. Sanitat

an exception stack trace containing the data of a customer object could put in a name by accident, for example. And then you're in trouble. The third parties you use could be storing data, even if they tell you they don't. If they

The answers to all those questions are "it depends". There's a few thousand libraries, those obviously refer to each other.. Some have readme files and that's enough, some have full documentation "books", some

> We're pretty small scale (< 20 services, < 10 devs) This is really important and the whole point, indeed. Eg: We consider our org to be "many repos" (we have several thousands). However, hundreds of them contain 5,

The benefits and drawbacks of both approaches is mostly: -what do existing tools do for you by default -what does creating artificial boundaries around projects does to your org (this is purely social/psychological). In both cases ther

The joke would be that even the simplest nodejs app these days pull in hundreds of libraries because of left-pad style libs... The more serious answer is that when you have hundreds/thousands of applications with as many use cases, cou

My wording must have been awful...because that's exactly what I was trying to say. The big companies that predate git and such used monorepos because that was the norm at the time, and it was easier to do with the tools at the time, an

Definitely not 100%. It also has a lot less to do with company size, and more about when the company was created. Before the git and similar tools of the world came to be, managing a single repo was a pain, nevermind hundreds or thousands o

That's easy. Depending on the interest rate, condo fees, taxes, etc, a 1 million home is about $4500 (less when the interest rates were lower, I think). If you have a couple of DINKs, it's 2250 per person per month, or about $2700

Define "far from the city". A 3br for 500k is available (if on the low-ish end) for Whaltam, which Boston folks consider to be in the middle of nowhere, but if it wasn't for traffic/transportation problems, wouldn't

I'm talking out of my behind here, but I was always under the impression some stuff we use casually is built with the assumption it's not under heavy attack, too. Eg: I thought consumer grade videocards were pretty darn insecure.

Fair, though usually "drinking zero water" as an extreme does not cause death by water intoxication, and avoiding all alcohol does not usually cause liver issues. So im curious how this particular extreme affects the galbladder.

A lot of companies in tech hotbeds have a hire rate of 25 to 50% of the people who make it in person. It's not "hiring every warm body", but it's pretty damn close in my book, if you consider that resume screening and ph

Absolutely, there's no full correlation between how hard you work and how successful you are, there are situations where the contrast is totally out of wack. We're (unfortunately) used to execs taking home insane pays for dubious

The sample app (the color contrast stuff) hurt my feelings a bit. I used to work on an app that needed to do something similar and I ended up fighting with the YIQ formula (it really doesn't work for a lot of cases). Playing with the s
